Urban Land Ceiling

The Urban Land Ceiling refers to a law that limits the amount of land one can own in urban areas. Its aim is to prevent land monopolies, promote equitable distribution of land, and control urban sprawl. By setting a ceiling on land ownership, these policies help ensure that more people have access to land for housing and development, making cities more livable. If an individual or company owns more land than allowed, they are required to sell or donate the excess. This approach is particularly important in rapidly growing cities where land scarcity can lead to high prices and inequality.
